Abstract
This paper examines several original drawings that explore the significance of montage in the composition of sonic works, where space plays an active role. Whilst choreographic drawings combine temporal and spatial information into a single image, there are very few instances of musical notation that incorporate a spatial element. The original examples discussed in this article do not serve as instructions for musical performances but instead function as a key part of the compositional process. The technique of compositing spatial and musical notational material aligns with the conceptual basis of the work. The objective is to create compositions that interact with a specific spatial context whilst also establishing their own spatial constructs, using sound as a medium. This type of work is referred to as ‘spatiosonic’.
